A show featuring Irish performers but not strictly Irish music.

Lisa O'Neill started the evening with her singular vocal, her voice having a similar intensity to Rufus Wainwright.

The compositions were hers and were simple and emotional.

Her guitar was sensitively supported by Mossy Nolan on guitar/bouzouki, and despite complaining of a temporary hearing loss in one ear, O'Neill's poetic songs hit home.

Oisin Leech, one half of The Lost Brothers, hails from an Irish village next to O'Neill's.

He and Mark McCausland's blend of folk/Americana takes in other musical genres and their acoustic guitars rang sweet.

With flashbacks to the folk clubs of the 1960s they played a set of self penned songs, mostly from their most recent album New Songs Of Dawn And Dust.

This was what Simon and Garfunkel called 'the harmony game', and The Lost Brothers are a very accomplished harmony duo as they emphasised when they encored with Mancini/Mercer's Moon River.

For a good while it was difficult to work out which voice was whose. They looked like a couple of sixth formers with their white shirts hanging out, but their music was as smooth and slick as The Everly Brothers' suits.
